Private French Home Cooking Class in Paris with Local Chef Ioana
Overview
This is a unique opportunity to visit the home of a local and explore traditional cuisine. Ioana, originally from Romania, has been living in France since 2008. She lives in Montreuil, a Paris suburb easily accessible by metro. Her food is inspired by her Romanian origins, Balkan roots and love for French cuisine. Ioana's beautiful, cozy apartment is a short train ride away from the city center. For your meal you can choose from a Romanian or French menu or even a fusion one - which combines her family recipes with a French touch.
In your 1 hour hands-on Paris cooking class, learn to make a main dish or dessert from scratch. Learn to make borek, a savory pastry filled with feta and spinach or papanasi, a cheese beignet with sour cream and blueberry jam or boeuf bourguignon, a French beef stew braised in red wine.
